Biomass pyrolysis kinetics: A comparative critical review with relevant agricultural residue case studies
TL;DR: A critical review of kinetic models and mathematical approximations currently employed in solid state thermal analysis is provided and analysis of thermal decomposition data obtained from two agricultural residues, nutshells and sugarcane bagasse reveals the inherent difficulty and risks involved in modeling heterogeneous reaction systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Qualitative and quantitative analysis of lignocellulosic biomass using infrared techniques: A mini-review
TL;DR: In this article, the progress and applications of infrared techniques in biomass study, and compares the infrared and the wet chemical methods for composition analysis, are summarized and compared, in addition to reviewing recent studies of biomass structure and composition.

TL;DR: Combination of base-catalyzed lignin hydrolysis with addition of boric acid protecting agent shifts the product distribution to lower molecular weight compounds and increases product yields beyond 85%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal properties of lignin in copolymers, blends, and composites: a review
TL;DR: The need for renewable alternatives to conventional petroleum based polymers has been the motivation for work on biobased composites, blends and materials whose foundations are carbon neutral feedstocks.

Journal ArticleDOI
Lignin-based carbon fibers for composite fiber applications
TL;DR: In this paper, a fusible lignin with excellent spinnability to form a fine filament was produced with a thermal pretreatment under vacuum, but at PEO levels greater than 5%, the blends could not be stabilized without the individual fibers fusing together.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comprehensive Approach for Quantitative Lignin Characterization by NMR Spectroscopy
TL;DR: Comparison of the calculated results with known databases on spruce MWL structure shows that the suggested approach is rather informative and comparable with the information obtained from the combination of various wet chemistry methods.
MonographDOI
Lignin : historical, biological, and materials perspectives
TL;DR: The second most abundant biopolymer in the world is lignin this paper, which forms the woody cell walls of plants and the cement material between the plant walls, and after cellulose, it is the second-most abundant bi-opolymer.

Miscibility and Hydrogen Bonding in Blends of Poly(ethylene oxide) and Kraft Lignin
John F. Kadla and,Satoshi Kubo +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the binary interaction parameter, χ, on Tg was analyzed, in which specific intermolecular interactions exist, and a strong hydrogen bond between the aromatic hydroxyl proton and the ether oxygen in PEO.
